So, it’s been just under three months since the gang last got together for a podcast. We’ve had a couple of episodes within that three month period, but the band is back together on a (hopefully) weekly basis now for the first time since early August. Episode 044 of Marooners’ Talk, titled “The 44(00),” sees us returning with wild and amazing new super-powers (not rea...[Read More]

With Episode 043 of Marooners’ Talk, “Dance Rock Blitz,” we had a chance to sit and chat with Nick Chester and Annette Gonzalez from Harmonix (Publicist and Dance Central Community Manager, respectively) about Dance Central 3 and Rock Band Blitz. Hear about Dance Central 3’s new story mode, Rock Band Blitz’s Score Wars and Rock Band World, and various other topics, in...[Read More]

As you may or may not have seen, Episode 041 is actually the second half of Episode 040. Episode 041 of Marooners’ Talk, titled “Quality Journalism,” picks up milliseconds after Episode 040 suddenly cuts off. A double recording session, as you’ll hear at the end of this episode, prompted me to simply call the first half Episode 040 and the second half Episode 041. Here, our...[Read More]

Man, this one went ALL OVER the place. For the first time since all the way back in Episode 023, our Internet famous friend from the Twitters joined us for a gabfest. In Episode 040 of Marooners’ Talk, titled “Assassin’s Creed III: Zombio Auditore’s Revolutionary Adventures,” we discuss the TOTALLY SERIOUS possibility of Assassin’s Creed III DLC that features th...[Read More]

Contained within Episode 039 of Marooners’ Talk, titled “Keflings Chat,” are certain EXCLUSIVE details about NinjaBee Games’ upcoming A World of Keflings candy-themed DLC, straight from the mouth of Andrew Hill (PR/Marketing for NinjaBee Games). Aside from exclusive DLC details, Andrew gives us some great insight into the workings of NinjaBee, how he feels about the Xbox Da...[Read More]

While Thom and I have been podcasting together for the last few months, and Lindsey and I podcasted together last week, Episode 038 of Marooners’ Talk, “Are You There Adam? It’s Us, Marooners’ Talk” is the first time since E3 2011 that Thom, Lindsey, and I have all podcasted together. Thom reminds Lindsey that he told her to play Mass Effect 2 a year ago, Lindsey wond...[Read More]

SURPRISE BONUS EPISODE! As you may or may not know, Lindsey has been AFK as far as the site is concerned for the better part of the last year due to her job at BioWare. As you may or may not ALSO know, she is no longer bound by that restriction, so an impromptu podcast episode was recorded! Episode 037 of Marooners’ Talk, “The Original Flava,” is just Lindsey and myself, just lik...[Read More]

For the most part over the last few months, we’ve managed to keep our podcasting trio intact. Occasionally, however, either Thom or Adam will totally let everyone down and fail to appear on a weekly episode. Last night, Thom and I found ourselves in just one such situation, as Adam may have died (but we’re fairly certain…pretty sure…hopeful that he’s alive). That bein...[Read More]

After a busy weekend of rocking out, followed by some hardcore napping, we finally got together to record this week’s podcast episode. Episode 034 of Marooners’ Talk, “Do A Barrel Roll!”, covers various topics. We get off to a slow start, but to be fair it was Monday evening, and not every opening can be fireworks and pinatas, so LAY OFF. There are a few moments of positive...[Read More]

Initially, “The Most Authentic Podcast Ever,” the 32nd episode of Marooners’ Talk, was going to focus solely on the wrap-up of E3 2012. The day before we recorded, however, Tom McShea’s “interview” with Greg Goodrich on Medal of Honor Warfighter for GameSpot came to our attention. Tom McShea is a “video game journalist” holding the position of “...[Read More]

Today’s episode goes just a smidge over our general hour-ish limit, clocking in at about two hours. Ok, maybe more than just a smidge, but it was fun, and screw you for judging me. Episode 031, titled “Too Cool for E3,” covers a wide range of topics. Insert a clever segue here, leading into Dawnguard and its beta, Injustice: Gods Among Us, LEGO Lord of the Rings, Castlevania: Lor...[Read More]

With my step-daughter’s birthday last weekend being the extraordinarily exorbitant affair that it was, I was, in the simplest of terms…pooped. Therefore, there was no podcast episode last week. Problem? Tough. This week, “Old People Talking About Cartoons,” Episode 030 of Marooners’ Talk, starts off with a group of almost-30-somethings (the titular “Old People...[Read More]
